A SCENE IN COURT.

3 Crazy Prisoner Fights Like Wild
Man.
Special to the Gazette.
He RIETTA, TEX, April 12-QuiJe an
excitement was created in the court house
this evening by one John Stoval, who
has been in the county Jail here since the
1st of last August, being charged with
the theft of horse. He has been tho" ght
to be crazy for some time, but nothing
was done until complaint was made by
the other inmates of the Jail, who COM
planned Of having to guard him on &C.
count OF his dangerous disposition. He
was brought before the county judge this
evening for the purpose OF having his
trial, and from his peculiar actions soon
attracted q large crowd. He was asked,
after being seated, by the distrlct-attor-
ney il he knew Colonel Jones, the county
attorney. He replied that he did, and that
he was ga Cd d-n big mouth ="
He was then asked by the county attOr-
ney if he knew the district attorney, and
the question Was answered similar to the
above; and with that he made bound
for the crowd, his victim being 2 young
man, whom he seized by the legs and
threw over his head against the opposite
wall. From this general fight was car
rico on for about half an hour between
the maniac on one side, VINO seemed 10
have supernatural strength, and the
sheriff, assisted by three or four others
on the other, and they did not succeed in
quieting him until ne was choked to the
floor and completely shackled and hand
cuffed. No sooner was the officers hand
taken off of him than he made another
Iuuge for the crowd, but being so COM
pletely exhausted ne soon fell to the floor,
and was then carried to the jsil. There
seems to be no clue to his past life. The
court proceeded with his trial and the
jury found him of "unsound mind"
